Important book and knowledge to have for naturalists, outdoors adventures.

Chapter 10 gives emergency filling advice.

The link above will be the best way to read this. Or you can order the book through Amazon.com.

If you cannot open the link in any emergency, below is the text only of Chapter 10. The images are at the link above.

( these cement fillings were used even by US military in the VietNam conflict and helped alleviate suffering, and preserve teeth for further later care. )

HOW TO PLACE A CEMENT FILLING-

Cement Filling Material -

Many companies make temporary filling material. The names on the packages are different. This makes it hard to know which one to order.

However, the basic material of each product is the same—zinc oxide and oil of cloves (eugenol). To save money, order these two main ingredients in bulk, instead of an expensive kind of cement filling material.

Oil of cloves is a liquid. Zinc oxide is a powder.

You may be able to buy a special kind of zinc oxide powder called I .R .M . (Intermediate Restorative Material). Fillings with I.R.M. are stronger and harder, so they last longer. But it is more expensive than zinc oxide.

Where There Is No Dentist 2010 HOW TO PLACE THE CEMENT FILLING -page146 -

Lay out on a clean cloth:

your syringe, needle, and local anesthetic (in case a tooth hurts)

Your instruments: mirror, probe, tweezers, spoon, filling tool, mixing tool

oil of cloves (eugenol) and zinc oxide

lots of cotton: cotton rolls, gauze, or cotton wool

smooth glass to mix cement

To place a cement filling, follow these 6 steps (pages 146–150):

1 . Keep the cavity dry. 2 . Lift out some, but not all, of the soft decay. (If the tooth hurts,

inject local anesthetic.) 3 . Mix the cement. 4 . Press the cement into the cavity. 5 . Remove the extra cement from around the cavity and the tooth. 6 . Explain what you are doing to the person.

1 . Keep the cavity dry . The cavity and the area around it must be dry so you can see what you are doing. Just as important, cement stays longer inside a dry cavity .

Place cotton between the cheek and gums to keep the area dry. Put some cotton under the tongue when you work on a lower tooth.

Use whatever kind of cotton you have: gauze, wool, or even rolls.

Change the cotton whenever it becomes wet .

Keep the cavity dry while you work. Wipe the inside of it every now and then with a bit of cotton.

Then leave a piece of cotton inside the cavity while you mix the cement.

Where There Is No Dentist 2010  -page 147 -

2 . Lift out some of the decay . You do not need to remove all of the decay on the bottom of the cavity. You can leave some, as long as you cover it with cement. If you try to dig out all of the decay, you might touch the nerve. Try to cover the decay so it stops growing.

However, you must remove all of the decay from the edge of the cavity . Otherwise, germs and food can go between the cement and the cavity and keep the decay growing inside.

Scrape clean the walls and the edge of the cavity. If you find that the edge is thin and weak, break it deliberately with the end of your instrument. That makes for stronger sides to hold onto the cement.

Use the spoon tool and lift out soft decay from inside the cavity. Do not go too deep. Make the cavity just deep enough to give thickness and strength to the cement. If the tooth hurts when you do this, stop and inject some local anesthetic . Use cotton gauze to collect the bits of decay so that the person does not swallow them.

Use your mirror and look closely around the edges of the cavity for decay that you may have missed. Put some cotton inside the cavity and leave it there while you mix the cement.

3 . Mix the cement on a piece of smooth glass. Place separately onto the glass a pile of zinc oxide powder and a few drops of eugenol liquid.

Pull a small amount of the powder to the liquid with the mixing tool and mix them together. Add more powder in this way, until the cement mixture becomes thick.

Suggestion: Practice with the cement ahead of time. You can then find out the time it takes to become hard.

Where There Is No Dentist 2010 -page 148-

Cement is much easier to use when it is thick and not too sticky . Roll a bit between your fingers. If the cement sticks, it is not yet ready. Add more powder and then test again.

Now take the cotton out of the cavity. Check to be sure the cavity is dry. If the cotton around the tooth is wet, change it.

4 . Press some cement into the cavity . Put a small ball of cement on the end of your filling tool. Carry it to the cavity. Spread it over the floor of the cavity and into the corners.

Then add another ball of cement, pressing it against the other cement and against the sides of the cavity.

Keep adding cement until the cavity is over-filled. Smooth the extra cement against the edge of the cavity.

If a cavity goes down between two teeth, one other step is necessary. You need to take care that the cement does not squeeze and hurt the gum.

REMEMBER: Decay stops growing only when the cement covers it completely and tightly .

Before you spread the cement, place something thin between the teeth.

You can use the soft stem from a palm leaf, a toothpick, or a tooth from a comb. Be sure it has a rounded end to prevent damage to the gums.

5 . Remove the extra cement before it gets too hard . Press the flat side of the filling tool against the cement and smooth it towards the edge of the cavity.

As you smooth the cement, shape it to look like the top of a normal tooth.

This way, the tooth above or below it can fit against the filling without breaking it.

After you take out the stem or toothpick (p.148), smooth the cement. Gums stay healthier when the cement beside them is smooth .

Cement that sticks out and is not smooth can hurt the gums. It can also later break off. When that happens, spit and germs are able to go inside and start the decay growing again.

It is also important to look closely around the tooth for loose pieces of cement and to remove them before they make the gums sore .

Use the end of your probe. Gently reach into the gum pocket and lift out any pieces of cement caught there.

Wipe off your probe with cotton gauze each time.

Now remove all the cotton and ask the person to gently close the teeth. The teeth should come together normally and not hit first against the cement filling. Too much pressure against the cement filling will crack and break it .

Always check to see if part of the filling is high:

(1) lf the cement is still wet, you can see the smooth place where the opposite tooth bit into it. Scrape the cement away from this place.

(2) If the cement is dry, have the person bite on a piece of carbon paper. If there is too much cement, the carbon paper will darken the cement. Scrape away that extra cement.

If you have no carbon paper, darken some paper with a pencil.

The person must not leave your clinic until the filled tooth fits properly against the other teeth .

Where There Is No Dentist 2010 -page 150-

6 . Explain things to the person . Explain how to look after the filling so it

will not break:

• Do not eat anything for 1 hour—let the cement get hard and strong.

• Try not to use that tooth for biting or chewing. Until there is a permanent filling, the cement and sides of the cavity are weak. They cannot take much pressure.

If the tooth hurts more after you place the cement filling, there is probably an abscess . Take out the tooth . If you cannot take out the tooth immediately because of swelling, take out the filling to relieve the pressure, and take out the tooth after you treat the swelling (page 93).

CLEAN YOUR INSTRUMENTS AFTER YOU FINISH

You do not need to boil your cement filling instruments. In fact, boiling can weaken the small pointed ends.

First scrape the dried cement from the filling and mixing tools. Then, after you scrub them with soap and water, leave them for 20 minutes in disinfectant (see page 89). Finally wrap the instruments together in a clean cloth so they are ready for use when you need them again.

REMEMBER:

A cement filling is only a temporary measure .

A good one can last up to 6 months. During this time, the person must see a dental worker who has the equipment to put in a permanent filling. For this, the person may have to travel to the city, or wait for the dental worker to visit your area.

ACCOMPANYING THE DYING and Phosphenes

ACCOMPANYING THE DYING and Phosphenism [11/11/17 -link is gone. http://www.phosphenism.com/ ]

Read the link above if you like. It is a website in honor of a  scientist who developed a modern system for attending to phosphenes.

my draft to rewrite:from 1/25/13 after Mother died.
For much of this lifetime, I have been allowing, but not naming, the ideas, perceptions of actual inner light, subtle and life energies that surround and run through a person. Actually, since childhood, I had accepted that I could read printed books in near darkness, when others could not. (My eyes, ears, skin, taste, smell seemed highly sensitive compared to others around me. ) I have all my outdoor childhood photos of me squinting into light as the photos were taken. I recall people telling me to keep my eyes from squinting.
In adult life, I did not want a computer with light streaming into my eyes, and did not have one for years, when others did. Using a computer screen at first seemed to cause my heart to race, then as I used a laptop more in recent 3 years, I can tell that my night-time eyesight dimmed somewhat.
As a simple and possible way to consider demonstrating that there is an actual inner vestige, of self-generated or stored, and active light in each person, to greater or lesser degrees, I like the concept and word Phosphenes. 
 "Phosphenes:The most common phosphenes are pressure phosphenes, caused by rubbing the closed eyes. They have been known since antiquity, and described by the Greeks."
Phosphenes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphene

In one recent, peaceful experience of encountering  death, and a dead body and one horrifying experience of a death and dead body, I have come to consider this:
I do not think that most people leave their body immediately or fully upon ceasing to breathe.
It may take days...and more. Ancients knew this and death as well as pre-burial traditions built up around this fact.
 This rushing people off to freezing cold storage tanks alone, away from loved ones is a ghastly and mean-spirited modern invention.
This year Nov 1, 2012, death happened to my mother, ahead of what I had intuited as her time. This is thanks to a series of the decisions and actions of her others daughters, I will name here as, daughter #2-Aprunella, daughter #3-Grizelda.  
It was appalling for me to witness this whole unfolding.
In brief, the close of this debacle, my own mother's life went as this:
I had seen her the night of October 31-November 1, 2012 until 2am. (I had rushed over for she was not answering her cell phone, which is unusual.) I stayed, and would have spent the night except for details I will not go into here. Aprunella stayed. She had her glass of wine to relax, sleeping pill also, I am sure, went into my mother's bedroom and shut the door. 
By 8am in the morning of November 1, 2012, Aprunella was phoning my spouse to announce a death. She would not call  my cell phone directly, I was told, in order to avoid hearing any of my possible emotion. "Pharmaceuticalized" Automaton anyone?
When I rushed to my mother's condo on November 1, she was gone. Aprunella was standing there, then sitting down and telling me that she wanted to move an intern from her soup kitchen into my mother's condominium! Within hours of my mother dying.
 I had to demand to see my mother. She had been put down as a stray animal, the night before, after all, by a hospice nurse (a stranger, administering 2 quickly successive i.v. doses of oxycodone that I questioned and did not halt quick enough) and her daughter, Aprunella who had administered to my mother, right after that, too much Tamazepam sublingually. The dose of a 30mg capsule dissolved and put into a syringe, which my mother had the firmness, and wits! to close her lips and REFUSE! Shaking her head subtly! Only to have the daughter, Aprunella, slip it in when I was not not looking, and proudly tell me of it afterward. Too much on a weakened state. Note that I had to demand of Aprunella, which dosage did you dissolve and put into syringe? For there was an Rx for 15 mg caps and one for 30 mg caps on the counter. She did not know, she said. I went and brought the two bottles to show her, and showed her the capsules. She said it was the 30 mg. This was not good, and I knew it! 
At certain points when mother needed the sleep, My mother had only been able to take the 15 mg of Temazapam! This was what she could handle. And she was seriously disciplined about this. I had spent nights with her and seen her ability to measure this out! And, she could NOT take it every night because of the groggy side affects, that she experienced. She would skip one or two nights. And take it again when she could not sleep naturally. She would put it by her bedside and only take it if necessary. If I was spending the night, I would hear her stirring, and I would go into make sure she was ok. I had seen her procedure.
Before the hospice nurse double-dosing of oxycodone, and the temazapam, just a little bit, say 1-2 hours, earlier than all this medication, my mother had been able to sit up! Move her own legs to the side of the bed and ask to go to the bathroom to move her very harmed bowels.(All her internal body had been viciously damaged and hemmoraging, harmed by a Dr prescribed drug- Pradaxa. She was still miraculously healing from this.) 
She wanted to move her bowels. Her abdomen was sorely distended. There was a port-a-potty right there,sitting in the living room , next to the hospital bed. And 3 adults to help her. A strong black haitian man, Aprunella, and myself. The other geniuses vetoed me, and told me my mother should not get up. Also, she was drowning in her fluids, that she was trying to cough up, as she sat up. The Phlegm was moving. They were stifling her cough as well. This made ZERO sense. Even if she and Aprunella had planned a death, this was NO WAY to go out peacefully. Which is quite important to the overall purpose of a person's life.
 I have nursed my mother all my life, even as recently as the Nursing home, when I helped administer suppositories, massaged her abdomen, and assisted her to the bedside port-a-potty etc to help her relieve herself. 
I should have stayed, at 2am November 1, 2012, and not left her for those hours. 
For the other daughter had taken to my mothers bedroom, and shut the door. Leaving my mother to the odd Hatian stranger. Who had been disappearing into the bathroom the whole time I was there. Or reading his tablet. I wonder if he recorded any of that night or my mother's death. I have a feeling this is being done by lovely Hospice people. I am not charmed AT ALL by the Hospice business.
 My mother's head was facing the exit door, in a hospital bed, in the condo living room. No one stated the vulgarity of this.
Now, others will criticize me for this. And blasé, peace out yogis, liberal and conservative intellectuals alike, and half-living zombies on pharmaceuticals, all groomed by the modern culture, will be numb about the whole thing...but, it is not a fully correct reaction to a very special event. 
The passing into death state is as holy as birth.
And the horror of seeing what I had thought of as my sister, and my mother's favorite child, kill her own mother. Left me stunned, frozen, in shock. Like never before.
I could not even know where to begin, after it happened.
And the actions, reactions, and behaviors of this creature, for I do not think she is fully human, afterward have confirmed that there are forces, not just plain old thoughts, that people accept into their bodies, and minds, and these become the person. The person then prefers to induce, and ignore suffering while also being death affirming. Especially if the person has a long history of drug and pharmaceutical use. Now these very same people can be publicly, in generally accepted and admired healing, helping, spiritual leadership fields! For these are the BEST covers of all for their works of stifling the light and life out of others!

I still have not read his book on magnetism. But the videos he offers are to be considered by myself...for he is telling some of the truth I have experienced in living.

Women Gurus In Kali Yuga?

Women Gurus In Kali Yuga?
A quote from an article gave pause: “Why would any woman even want to become a guru?!” “Why would anyone want to take on someone else’s karmas?” 

While it is not the gist of her piece it did apply to another train of reasoning and action in these times:

Won't take your karmas, will accept your time, your positive attention for myself and my cause, your adulation, and your money while preparing for my retirement though. These, I will say, are the result of your karmas anyway you know, so let me relieve you of them. Go to a doctor for your problems. Ah, the doctor is my business partner, as well as the lawyer, win-win-win. Are you cured yet?
